TITTLE.—See Jot.
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
Edited by James Hastings, D.D. Published in 1909


tit?'l (κεραία, keraı́a (Westcott-Hort, keréa), from κέρας, kéras, ?a horn?): A small stroke or mark, specif. on a letter to denote accent, or as a diacritical mark; used only in Mat_5:18 and Luk_16:17. In the first passage it is used in connection with iota, or jot, i.e. the very smallest thing, and in both it refers to the minutiae of the Law. It is well known that the scribes paid the greatest attention to such marks attached to the letters in the Hebrew Scriptures, the Massoretic Text of which abounds in them. See JOT; YODH.

(diminutive of tit), an old English word signifying the merest trifle (see Plulmptre, Bible Educator, 4:211), is used in the A. V. (Mat_5:18; Luk_16:17) as a rendering for κεραία, a little horn, hence a point (e.g. of a sail yard, Lucan, Navig. 4; Polyb. 14:10, 11; of an island, Philostr. Vit. Soph. 1, 21, 2); in the New Test. the apex of a Heb. letter, such as distinguishes ד from ד, ב from כ, i.e. the slightest distinction (so Philo, in Flacc. p. 984 b). SEE JOT.
